Why convert JPG to WebP?
WebP is a modern image format that produces noticeably smaller files than JPG at the same visual quality; Google’s own comparison found lossy WebP files 25–34% smaller than comparable JPEGs. Smaller images mean faster pages, better Core Web Vitals and lower bandwidth bills. Every current browser, including Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, displays WebP.
Unlike JPG, WebP also supports transparency, so it can replace PNG for logos and cut-outs on websites at a fraction of the size.
How to convert images to WebP
- Drop your JPG or PNG files in the box above (up to 30 at a time).
- The format is set to WebP at 80% quality. For hero images you can go up to 85%; for thumbnails 70% is plenty.
- Press Compress images. The summary shows the total space saved.
- Download the .webp files or a ZIP and upload them to your site.
Where WebP works, and where it does not
| Use | WebP? |
|---|---|
| Websites, blogs, WordPress, Shopify | Yes, recommended |
| Product images on most marketplaces | Check the rules; many still prefer JPG |
| Email newsletters | Not reliable in every email app; use JPG or PNG |
| Government or job application forms | Usually not accepted; use JPG |
| Printing | Use the original JPG or PNG |
Tips
- Convert from the best original you have. Re-encoding an already heavily compressed JPG to WebP saves less and can add artefacts.
- For the very smallest files on modern sites, compare with AVIF.
- Keep your originals: some platforms and editors still cannot open WebP.
